Chapter 746: Public Family Meeting

Nicole's family meeting attracted people from the whole base, and the inside and outside of the meeting hall were surrounded. The person who presided over the meeting was Elder Russell, who was the most convincing person in the whole base.

Hughes also "attended" the meeting, his hands were firmly tied, of course, just to prevent him from taking off his clothes again, Linna, with red eyes, stood beside him and pressed him With restless hands, all members of the Nicole family are present.

There is a huge round table in the conference hall. Those who can sit at the round table to participate in the meeting have always been relatively key figures, and the rest of the people can only sit around the round table or even stand.

Only Su Jin and Lu Hao from the Xinyu team came to the meeting. They were arranged beside Qiao, and they were also members of the round table.

Originally, Qiao invited all members of the Xinyu team to participate but was rejected by the family. Since they couldn't understand, they just listened to Su Jin's report.

Many people came here with the mentality of watching a good show.

What they were most curious about was how the Nichols family would deal with the scandal within the family.

The eyes cast on Hughes gradually changed from curiosity to playfulness, even mixed with some ridicule.

Everyone in the Nicole family lowered their heads deeply. The face of the family is so important, especially for a big family like theirs.

"Everyone, today is the family meeting of the Nicole family. Thank you very much for coming to the scene. As the elder of the Nicole family for two consecutive terms, I am also honoured to preside over this meeting today."

Elder Russell opened his mouth. The scene fell silent. This older elder seemed to have a kind of prestige, which made everyone present feel respected.

"About what happened last night, we all feel very unfortunate. Patriarch Hughes worked hard for the base day and night and made various contributions to the base, but such a thing happened. Now, as an elder, I also reluctantly think about it. To put forward my suggestion, I am willing to propose that the Nicholas family change their patriarch in front of the entire base!" Russell said loudly.

"I don't agree! Patriarch Hughes must have conspired to suddenly become like this, don't you all find it strange?!"

Among the crowd, Sally, a branch of the Nicole family, suddenly stood up and objected.

"Sally, we also thought it was strange before, but the investigation report issued by the investigation team also showed that there was no abnormality in Hughes' house at the time of the incident, and no one else entered." Elder Russell threw out a stack of photos and documents, and let everyone present read them.

When Su Jin looked at those documents, he couldn't help admiring that Russell and the others prepared them in such a short period, and even collected statements from all the guards around the house.

"If you still don't believe me, I still have a surveillance video of Hughes's house. The video shows that, except for a car that came back from the outside and entered the house, there is no sign of intrusion in the house, and the door The staff at the office can also prove that the car was also driven in by Hughes..."

Russell explained clearly, and the investigation report even included the alibi of everyone in the Nichols family, including Joe of course. of.

Sally, who raised doubts, frowned and read the reports without saying a word. Those reports were done very rigorously, and he was indeed investigated by the investigation team for his alibi the night before.

"Elder Russell, we believe what you said, but has the candidate for the replacement of the patriarch been decided?"

The guard captain Fini asked after flipping through the reports.

"That's why I announced the holding of a public meeting today. I would like to implore everyone in the base to vote together to help the Nickel family choose a fair and just candidate!" As soon as Russell's words came out, the audience erupted.

Can everyone vote?

This is fair!

During the discussion, some people in uniforms were already handing out uniform paper and pens.

To save time, the counting of votes started when someone first handed in the votes.

Seeing the people collecting the tickets on the blackboard not far away and writing down the nominees in the tickets in public, Su Jin, who was a bystander, only felt that Russell had played a good hand.

The names submitted by those who voted first were like some templates, including several non-supernatural members of Nichols' collateral lineage, and even Linna's name was on the list.

The appearance of Joe's name would not appear so abrupt, but comparing these names together can just give a reference to those who are still hesitating.

In comparison, it is obvious that Joe, who just led the Xinyu team to wipe out zombie cockroaches across the country, is even better!

So it was no surprise that Joe won the position of patriarch of the Nickel family with 96% of the votes.

After Joe was elected, the first words he uttered shocked everyone in the audience.

"I'm very happy that everyone can trust me so much. I used to have no interest in this supreme position, but during this period, I have seen more and learned more, and I have my ideas."

"Since the end of the world, each of us is in purgatory. It turns out that the population of country Y is only one thousandth left. They are eaten by zombies, insects and even mice. Among them are strong men and some Weak children, even the mothers who gave birth to live, the gods have abandoned us, and everyone left in our country Y is a warrior who survived in the cracks!"

"So in such an environment, what do you think? What are we missing now? Is it an ancient and pedantic Nicole family? Is it the rules that have remained unchanged from before the apocalypse to after the apocalypse? Is it the oath of allegiance that each of you read in front of the Nichols family?"

"I think these are bullshit! They can't save anyone now, and they can't help everyone here. We all understand that if it weren't for the help of the Xinyu team during this period, our Y The last remaining base in the country is also doomed to be destroyed, and the family, the rules and oaths of the family cannot save us..."

The inside and outside of the meeting hall suddenly became quiet, and many people lowered their heads. These are all real situations in the last days.

Their god has abandoned them, and their so-called beliefs have already collapsed to pieces. Otherwise, how could they swear allegiance to a Nichol family that has nothing to do with them?

But what if what he said was true?

"So I announce that I will disband the Nickel family today!"

Joe said loudly.
